REFERENCE

GUIDE

NAVIGATIONSYSTEM

(if equipped)

The Mercury Mariner Hybrid

is a whole new kind of SUV

that combines electric and

gasoline propulsion without

compromise, to provide

breakthrough performance

and efficiency. It requires

no special fuels and never

has to be plugged in.

Familiarizing yourself with

these unique characteristics

will help ensure optimal

performance from your

new vehicle.

NORMAL VEHICLE

OPERATION

Starting: Turn the ignition

key to the start position

while your vehicle is in P

(Park). The green ‘Ready

Indicator’ light will

appear in the instrument

cluster, letting you know

that the vehicle is ready

for driving. The engine

may not start because this

hybrid vehicle is equipped

with Silent Key Start. This

fuel saving feature allows

your vehicle to be ready to

drive without requiring the

gas engine to be running.

This indicator will remain

on while the vehicle is

on, whether the engine is

running or not, to indicate

the vehicle is capable of

movement (using its electric

motor, engine, or both).

“Ready to Drive” will also

momentarily appear in the

message center.

Note: You may notice higher

engine speeds upon start-up.

This temporary condition

is normal and necessary to

warm up the engine and

minimize emissions.

Driving: The gas engine

automatically starts and

stops to provide power when

it’s needed and to save fuel

when it’s not. While coasting

at low speeds, coming to

a stop or standing, the

engine normally shuts down

and the vehicle operates

in electric-only mode.

Conditions that cause the

engine to start up or remain

running include:

• Considerable vehicle

acceleration.

• Vehicle speed of

approximately 44 mph

(71 km/h) or above.

• Ascending a hill.

• Selection of climate control

defrost mode or defrost/

floor mode.

• Charge level of high voltage

battery is low.

• Very high or low outside

temperature (to provide

system cooling/heating).

Stopping: The gas engine

may shut off as you come

to a stop to conserve fuel.

Restarting the vehicle is not

required. Simply step on the

accelerator when you are

ready to drive.

Transmission Operation:

Due to the technologically

advanced, electronically

controlled Continuously

Variable Transaxle (eCVT)

you will not feel shift

changes like those of a

non-hybrid vehicle. Your

hybrid’s transmission is

designed to do its work

seamlessly. Since engine

speed is controlled by the

transmission, it may seem

elevated at times. This is

normal hybrid operation and

helps deliver fuel efficiency

and performance.

Neutral: It is not

recommended to idle the

vehicle in N (Neutral) for

extended periods of time

because this will discharge

your high voltage battery

and decrease fuel economy.

Because of the unique

nature of the hybrid vehicle,

the engine will not start in

the N (Neutral) position.

Also, the engine cannot

provide power to the hybrid

system in N (Neutral).

Low Gear: L (Low Gear)

is designed to mimic the

enhanced engine braking

available in non-hybrid

vehicles. Low gear will

produce high engine

speeds to provide necessary

engine braking. This is

normal and will not damage

your vehicle.

Reverse: R (Reverse Gear)

vehicle speed is limited to

22 mph (35 km/h).

UNIQUE HYBRID

OPERATING

CHARACTERISTICS

Battery: Your hybrid has a

high voltage battery. A cool

battery ensures battery

life and provides the best

possible performance.

Your hybrid high voltage

battery may periodically

recondition itself to ensure

maximum efficiency. You

may notice slight changes

in drivability during this

process, but it’s an important

part of your hybrid’s high

voltage battery optimization

features. The high voltage

battery is cooled by cabin air

drawn from vent holes in the

driver-side cargo trim panel.

Avoid placing objects over

the vent holes which would

block airflow to the high

voltage battery.

Engine: The engine speed

in your hybrid is not directly

tied to your vehicle speed.

Your vehicle’s engine and

transmission are designed

to deliver the power you

need at the most efficient

engine speed. During heavy

accelerations, your hybrid

may reach high engine

speeds (up to 6000 RPM).

This is a characteristic of

the Atkinson cycle engine

technology helping to

maximize your hybrid’s

fuel economy. In prolonged

mountainous driving, you

may also see the engine

tachometer changing

without your input. This is

intentional and maintains

the battery charge level.

You may also notice during

extended downhill driving

that your engine continues

to run instead of shutting off.

During this “engine braking,”

the engine stays on, but it’s

not using any fuel. You

may also hear a slight

whine or whistle when

operating your vehicle.

This is the normal operation

of the electric generator in

the hybrid system.

Braking: Your hybrid has

standard hydraulic braking

and regenerative braking.

Regenerative braking

is performed by your

transmission; it captures

brake energy and stores it in

your high voltage battery.

DRIVING TO OPTIMIZE

FUEL ECONOMY

Your fuel economy should

improve throughout your

hybrid’s break-in period.

As with any vehicle, fuel

economy can be significantly

impacted by your driving

habits and accessory usage.

For best results, keep in

mind these tips:

Tire Inflation: Keep tires

properly inflated and only

use recommended size.

Driver Habits: Aggressive

driving increases the

amount of energy required

to move your vehicle. In

general, better fuel economy

is achieved with mild to

moderate acceleration and

deceleration. Moderate

braking is particularly

important since it allows

you to maximize the energy

captured by the regenerative

braking system. Note: Having

your engine running is not

always an indication of

inefficiency – in some

cases it is actually more

efficient than driving in

electric mode.

Additional Tips:

• Do not carry extra loads.

•

Be mindful of adding

external accessories

that may increase

aerodynamic drag.

• Observe posted speed limits.

• Perform all scheduled

maintenance.

• There is no need to wait

for your engine to “warm

up.” The vehicle is ready

to drive immediately

after starting.

The reverse sensing

system may warn you if

there is an object behind

the vehicle. A warning

tone will sound which

increases in frequency

as the object gets closer

and then will sound

continuously when the

object is less than 10

inches away. The system

is active when the vehicle

is in R (Reverse) and

traveling less than 3 mph

(5km/h).

Note: Visibility

aids do not replace the

need to watch where the

vehicle is moving. Refer

to your Owner’s Guide for

safety information, more

detail and limitations.
